2267 With the Heavens in Chaos, Evil Delusions Emerge

Su Kongyun accepted the two Sage Seal Wooden Swords, placed them into small containers, and reassured Profound Sage Tyrannical Song by saying, “I’ll absolutely get this mission done, Senior Tyrannical Song. You can trust me completely!”

“Take a seat; let’s get going,” Song Shuhang flashed a friendly smile. With a thought, the Fairy Jade Rabbit’s Cloak and the Divine Lobster’s Chariot streaked across the sky.

While the cloak and chariot flew at an astonishing speed, they remained remarkably stable.

This was Song Shuhang’s unique flying style that struck a balance between speed and stability.

Profound Food Pavilion was an immortal cave newly established by Immortal Fairy Biexue in Jiangnan. She primarily chose this location because after Sage Monarch White emerged from seclusion this time, he had established his base near Jiangnan University Town and had been staying with Song Shuhang.

As a result, Immortal Fairy Biexue quietly opened an immortal cave restaurant in Jiangnan. Since it was so close, it was only natural that Sage Monarch White would think of her restaurant first when craving delicious food.

Profound Food Pavilion had been in operation for just half a month, and all kinds of immortal culinary equipment had recently been set up.

At that moment, Immortal Fairy Biexue sat by the window on the second floor. A gauze veil covered her face as she rested her cheek on her hand and stared vacantly out the window.

Immortal Fairy Biexue couldn’t muster any excitement today.

“Judging by the time, Tyrannical Song should be arriving soon,” she mumbled.

However, it was unfortunate that Sage Monarch White hadn’t come along with Tyrannical Song.

Profound Sage Tyrannical Song, as the most renowned figure in the cultivation world today, deserved some respect.

The reason she couldn’t get excited was twofold.

The main reason was that Fellow Daoist White didn’t come.

The other reason was the presence of a cluster of malevolent delusions surrounding the Profound Food Pavilion.

A gray mist enveloped the protective formation of the Profound Food Pavilion. Inside this mist, faint black flames attacked the barrier.

These were malevolent delusions.

Malevolent delusions came in various forms and were all-encompassing in their effects.

The malevolent delusions enveloping Immortal Fairy Biexue’s Shiyuan Pavilion were akin to inner demons. Although they couldn’t breach the protective formation, they could still influence the cultivators within.

That’s why Immortal Fairy Biexue was feeling down.

The malevolent delusions were still in their infancy, so even if left unchecked for a decade, they wouldn’t be able to pierce Immortal Fairy Biexue’s barrier.

Furthermore, Immortal Fairy Biexue hadn’t made any move to dispel them. When malevolent delusions were nascent and weak, they could be employed to temper one’s Dao heart.

Immortal Fairy Biexue wouldn’t miss such an opportunity.

This type of malevolent delusion, similar to inner demons, could fetch a hefty price in the cultivation world.

Cultivators had various, often peculiar, methods of honing their Dao hearts. There was no fixed regimen for something like Dao heart cultivation. Different people had unique ways of refining their Dao hearts.

There were even cultivators who paid a high price to invite members of the Demon Sect to perform secret dances in the belief it would aid in honing their Dao hearts.

“Swoosh~”

At this moment, two gleams of treasure light streaked across the sky.

A cloak and a chariot appeared in Immortal Fairy Biexue’s line of sight.

This elegant chariot was the one Profound Sage Tyrannical Song had used to transport her to the Immortal Banquet earlier.

“He’s finally here,” Immortal Fairy Biexue murmured.

While extending her hand, she created an opening at the top of the protective formation for Song Shuhang to pass through.

After a brief while, the magic carpet was the first to touch down.

“Huh?” As Song Shuhang alighted, he noticed the malevolent delusions encircling the Profound Food Pavilion.

The gray mist and black flames gave Song Shuhang a sense of déjà vu.

“Inner demons?” Profound Sage Tyrannical Song’s eyes sparkled.

The malevolent delusions encircling the Profound Food Pavilion suddenly hesitated.

In the next instant, they began to retreat underground and vanished into the depths.

“I won’t let you escape so easily!” Song Shuhang chuckled.

Although inner demons couldn’t compare to Inner Demon Tribulations, and Inner Demon Sashimi Slices couldn’t rival Inner Demon Tribulation Sashimi Slices, Senior Ruler of Shadows seemed to enjoy consuming them nonetheless.

This might somewhat help offset his debt… probably.

From inside the pavilion, Immortal Fairy Biexue lazily remarked, “Fellow Daoist Tyrannical Song, please don’t cause trouble. Those aren’t inner demons; they’re malevolent delusions.”

Simultaneously, Immortal Fairy Biexue felt quite puzzled. Why did these malevolent delusions flee as soon as Song Shuhang arrived? It was as though they’d encountered their arch-nemesis.

[Right, I almost forgot about the tremendous power of virtue within Song Shuhang.]

The light of virtue was the bane of all malevolent entities, and malevolent delusions were no exception. They were exceptionally vulnerable to the light of virtue.

Song Shuhang heard this and lifted his head to glance at Immortal Fairy Biexue.

Even with a veil separating them, Song Shuhang could still perceive the deep-seated laziness emanating from her.

It was an aura of decadence that was utterly lethargic to the core.

It resembled Pavilion Master Chu from the original Crystal-Clear Water Pavilion.

Behind him, the Divine Lobster’s chariot descended slowly.

Song Shuhang stowed away the two life-bound magical treasures and guided the trio of Chu Chu, Lady Onion, and Su Kongyun to the second floor of the Profound Food Pavilion.

“Feel free to sit wherever you like. I had initially planned to serve you tea, but today, I just can’t summon the energy. Please prepare your own tea,” Immortal Fairy Biexue said. Her hands remained folded as she rested her chin.

Song Shuhang was speechless.

He could only silently retrieve spirit green tea from his Inner World and boil some water to make tea.

“Fairy Biexue, what exactly are malevolent delusions?” Song Shuhang asked while holding a teacup.

Meanwhile, Chu Chu, standing nearby, began pouring tea for everyone.

Immortal Fairy Biexue replied lazily, “As chaos reigns in the heavens, malevolent delusions arise. Anyway, they’re strange and negative entities. Their appearance signifies trouble. My Profound Food Pavilion was just established, and I moved a small spiritual vein from the moon here. As a result, these malevolent delusions appeared.”

Song Shuhang furrowed his brows.

He immediately understood that this matter was related to the diminishing authority of the Wielder of the Heaven’s Will and the collapse of the universe.

The universe had begun to collapse from unknown corners.

In the regions undergoing collapse, remnants of the Wielders of the Heaven’s Will were emerging.

Simultaneously, other parts of the universe were affected.

These malevolent delusions were likely to appear all over the world before the formal replacement of the Wielder of the Heaven’s Will.

During this period of transition, turmoil would likely engulf the entire universe.

Even ordinary people might become embroiled and profoundly affected by this period of transformation.

It brought to mind Senior White’s reminder. Senior White had urged him to allocate some time for worldly affairs. There seemed to be a shared concern.

Immortal Fairy Biexue interjected, “Judging by your expression, it seems you know something.”

“Mm-hm.” Song Shuhang nodded. “I fear this wave of turmoil will be quite substantial. I…”

But Immortal Fairy Biexue suddenly interrupted, “Hold off on that. I can’t be bothered to listen today. We’ll talk about it another time.”

Song Shuhang was speechless.

Song Shuhang thought. ‘I was about to wrap it up with just a few more words!’

Immortal Fairy Biexue then inquired, “By the way, why do I sense a chef’s heart emanating from you?”

“Haha, Fairy Biexue, you finally noticed? Yes, that’s the power of a chef’s heart. It’s not limited to me; take a look at my disciple.” Song Shuhang pointed at Chu Chu. “Actually, my main purpose in coming here this time is to request your guidance to Chu Chu.”
